"Ricky was an excellent captain for our group. He navigated the rougher waters when we had a group that wasn’t used to the conditions and he made us comfortable and reassured the rest of the passengers that they were in safe hands. If you’re looking for a captain than knows the local areas and spots this is your guy."
